The Heart of the Red Chamber

Wang Ren has no doubt that Wang Ziteng will participate in maritime trade. After all, this dynasty does not impose a maritime ban, and there is even a not-so-weak navy. Most of the people who can participate in maritime trade are famous and wealthy merchants. Wealthy, of course, many powerful people are also eating dry stocks in it. Even if this kind of business is not a huge profit, it is not far behind.Wang Ziteng has well-connected people in the army, and also has acquaintances in the navy. In addition, he is more powerful now, and some people are willing to add flowers to the cake. It can be said that it is a guaranteed profit.

Sure enough, not long after, Wang Ziteng sent Wang Xin, the second housekeeper of his family, to Quanzhou, who should be in charge of maritime trade.

Wang Ren didn't have time to inquire about these things either. He was going to take the provincial examination next year, so his homework was becoming more and more intense. The Imperial College also had great hopes for the Gongsheng students who were expected to pass the provincial examination. These top students would often receive additional guidance. , and Chen Jingrong has always had high hopes for himself as a student, so he naturally increased his homework. In his words, if you fail the provincial examination this time, you will lose face as a teacher, so you must work hard Try harder!

After many years, the situation before the college entrance examination in the previous life reappeared again, and Wang Ren almost shouted and depressed. If there is no electric light these days, the light of the candle is really very dim, and it is estimated that Wang Ren will have no leisure at night.In this regard, Wang Ren is quite fortunate. From this, it can be seen that backward technology also has the benefits of backward technology!

"I've seen little uncle!" Chen Qian bowed to Wang Ren with some embarrassment.

Wang Ren was also very embarrassed, he waved his hand: "It's brother Qian, didn't you go to school today?" Chen Qian is now studying in the Xie family school, and it's not a special day today, why don't you go to school? !

Chen Qian quickly explained: "Back to my little uncle, Mr. has something to do at home today, so he gave us a day off! No matter how courageous my nephew is, he won't dare to skip class!" After saying this, he took a peek at Wang Ren glanced, this little uncle should be in the Imperial College right now, why did he meet him on the street!

Wang Ren saw what he was thinking, and chuckled lightly: "I'm going to deliver the article I wrote two days ago to my husband today, and ask him to comment on it. But today, someone is visiting from my husband's house, so I'll be back first!"

Chen Qian was very disappointed. Wang Ren has always been his shadow. His parents kept talking about him every day. Your little uncle is two years younger than you. What happened now? I thought I could catch him this time. It seems that Wang Ren's tricks are not going to work. Just when he was about to say something, Wang Ren said with a smile: "We haven't seen each other for a long time. Today, everyone is free. It's not a coincidence, Brother Qian. Today uncle, I will be the host, Zuixianlou, how about it?"

Even if Zuixian Tower is not the best in Chang'an, it is not far behind. Corresponding to its reputation, it also has a price in line with this reputation. Chen Qian is not very old. Although the Chen family is still rich, they can go to Chen What Qian had in his hands was only four taels of silver a month, so the consumption level of Zuixianlou was clearly not something he could afford. Hearing what Wang Ren said now, his eyes lit up immediately: "Uncle said that real?"

Wang Ren smiled casually: "Is there any benefit in lying to you? Uncle, I made a small fortune before, and I can still pay for the expenses of Zuixianlou, and I won't keep you to pay for the meal at that time!"

Chen Qian also laughed when he heard Wang Ren's funny words: "Then I won't be angry with my nephew!"

"Why are you so angry!" Wang Ren said with a smile, "Let's go, our nephews and uncles are also going to have a dental festival!"

Chen Qian didn't ask too much, he just thought that some of Wang Ren's elders gave him the reward, just like himself, he went back to Wang's house every year and had a lot of money in his private house. The relatives of Wang's family are indeed richer than most of the relatives of Chen's family too much.

However, Wang Ren's extra money is really not a reward from the elders.

As I said earlier, in addition to a bunch of tribute students, there are also noble children who are sheltered in the Guozijian. It is inevitable that there are some nouveau riche that people can't see.

A few days ago, Wang Ren was about to go back, but he was held back by Feng Ziying. The Feng family was also from a military background and had some friendship with the Wang family. It is said that Mr. Feng Tang of Feng Ziying's family saw that Feng Ziying was really not a student, and was planning to add Feng Ziying to the city defense army in a few days, so as to make some capital.Feng Ziying is straightforward and loyal, and she and Wang Ren have known each other since childhood, so they have a good relationship.When he entered the Imperial College, Wang Ren and a group of Gongsheng students who were about a round older than himself had always been just friendship between gentlemen, and those who were really dandies looked down on them, so they mixed with Feng Ziying with a group of people. They are quite familiar, those people take good care of Wang Ren, who is younger, and Wang Ren mostly plays the role of a dog-headed military adviser. Generally, these people like to discuss with Wang Ren if they want to slander someone. Small, with a lot of eyes!

What Feng Ziying wants to teach this time is Wu De, who has just joined the Imperial Academy. That guy is a typical ignorant master. The Wu family has not produced any outstanding figures in recent years, and the biggest official is only a member of the fifth rank. Wai Lang, luckily, gave birth to a daughter who is a favorite concubine, who is today's Concubine Yun.At first Concubine Yun was only selected to be a maid in the palace, but she was favored by Concubine Shu back then and now Empress Dowager, and was rewarded to the current Majesty to be a concubine. The king's favor changed from a concubine to a concubine, and later gave birth to a son, although he died not long after, but because of this, he became one of the side concubines in Cheng Wang's mansion. She was named Concubine Yun.A few days ago, Concubine Yun blew the pillow wind in the ear of the Holy Master, and talked about her younger brother, but the Holy Master just opened his mouth and stuffed this younger brother into the Imperial College.

This is actually not a big deal, the water in the Guozijian is still quite deep, who knows how much it can be related to the royal family!However, this Wu De is not good at being a human being. He was spoiled by his parents at home and has all kinds of bad habits.Which one of Feng Ziying and the others is a fuel-efficient lamp? There are several upstarts like the Wu family who think highly of them. If they hadn't worried that Concubine Yun is the favorite concubine in the world, they would have directly asked someone to put Wu De's sack and beat him to death. I can't fucking recognize it.

But Wu De didn't know how to restrain himself, he thought everyone was afraid of him, and the previous one had a conflict with Feng Ziying's friend Wei Ruolan - this kid was so bold that he directly molested Wei Ruolan.This time, Uncle could bear it, and Auntie couldn't bear it anymore. Feng Ziying immediately ran over to block Wang Ren and asked Wang Ren for advice.
